Memorable Quotes from Akira Takarada
6 quotesThe Moral Dilemma of Destructive Power
Dr. Daisuke Serizawa
Ogata, please forgive me. If it could be put to good use, I'd be the first to reveal it to the world. But right now it's nothing but a weapon of mass destruction. Please understand!
Hideto Ogata
I do understand. But if we don't stop Godzilla now, what's to become of us?
Dr. Daisuke Serizawa
Ogata...if the Oxygen Destroyer is used even once, the politicians of the world won't stand idly by. They'll inevitably turn it into a weapon. A-bombs against A-bombs, H-bombs against H-bombs. As a scientist - no, as a human being - adding another terrifying weapon to humanity's arsenal is something I can't allow.
Hideto Ogata
Then what do we do about the horror before us now? Just let it happen? Only you can save us from this tragedy. Even if you use it to defeat Godzilla, how can it be used as a weapon if you don't publish your research?
Dr. Daisuke Serizawa
Ogata, we human beings are weak creatures. Even if I burn my notes, everything's still in my head. As long as I'm alive, who can say I wouldn't be coerced into using it again? If only I'd never invented it!

A Request for Monster Assistance
Controller of Planet X
We need an exterminator, one that would drive away King Ghidorah. We need from you Monster Zero 1 and Monster Zero 2, Godzilla and Rodan.
Astronaut K. Fuji
Are you serious?
Controller of Planet X
Of course. Deadly serious. King Ghidorah was driven from Earth only with the combined strengths of Godzilla and Rodan. Would you help us?
Astronaut K. Fuji
Well, your request is quite unusual. We do not know how to answer that.
Glenn
Plus, we did not know where Godzilla and Rodan are. If we did, how are we supposed to catch them and bring them here?
